Love a good pel shootout. Up the Exeter.

I’m going to try and find the thread as it was only the other day I seen it

I was reading on X (I na, I na) that there’s some blokes sit down in the strawberry corner out of pure stubbornness that it is “their” seat. Obviously unsure on its accuracy but it sums it up

Never have a better chance of going there in the league and doing them. They’ll be hurting after that, they’re already a soft touch compared to normal and we’ll be full of confidence with our class record recently. Further to that, we’ve got the benefit of an extra 72 hours rest. Manchester City 2-0 Newcastle United. Standard.

Sadly I think a lot of our fans have this mindset where they believe the flag displays at the start is essentially a great atmosphere, so they’ll sit there and film it, maybe half heatedly sing along to the aids ridden Hey Jude and then remain silent thinking they’ve done their bit. The flag displays are class and should be the match that ignites an atmosphere,

Forest 7 minutes into 10 minutes stoppage time but the ball hasn’t been in play for a minute of it due to a nasty face injury. Could go on til 11 bells this if it goes to pens

I can’t believe people are too thick to not see the impact that getting behind the team has. Like Bruno said, when SJP is like it is against Arsenal we can do wonderful things. Appreciate it’ll sadly never be that level every week, but if you can’t get up for a game as big as this when you should fuck off. Have a bit or pride in your football club and city.

I hate our fans me like. Bunch of utter cunts.

Surely they have the time of the cup final pencilled in at the start of the season and work around it. Cannot see it being 8pm for the reason that it’s impossible to get back Tyneside or Merseyside by train post match, and despite both sets of fans being passionate and fairly decent, they won’t them mixing that late full of all sorts.

Seems fair.

Cannot argue really, respect to you for your persistence. Hopefully something comes in to reward that persistence. The membership does need reviewed for sure.

You make valid points. How do you split members though? Being a member, it’s essentially pot luck as to whether you get to a game (albeit you can make an effort by refreshing on the resale). Should people be rewarded for getting lucky in the ballot by getting priority for a cup final? We are very well supported, you could argue more so than at any point in our history, so it’s very difficult. As I said I’m a member sadly, travelled the country hundreds of times watching us, been to Belgium, Ukraine, Paris watching us. Sadly it’s all irrelevant now and I knew that would be the case when I gave up my ST.

Wouldn't be surprised either, this is a bit of a suggestion of it. I’m sure the mackems do something where it’s based on the previous season. Maybe we move towards that.

Seen a lot of complaints but I feel it is pretty fair. Only thing I would say is that it’s pretty mad that loyalty points doesn’t come into it. Saying this as a member, I don’t think there should be a world where members get tickets ahead of season ticket holders. Devastated I gave mine up. My copium is that if I didn’t we wouldn’t have nice things such as cup finals, even though my decision made little to no difference.

I hated that decision but I’m glad about it in this instance. Mid week trip to the south coast isn’t ideal.

Not too bad a draw, just hope it doesn’t go to a replay (are they back now?)

Get the fuck in. Wa deein the double

Still cannot get over 9 minutes. Scandalous.

Having this man, Gordon (against Trent) and Isak is what gives me some hope for the final against the Micky mousers.

Liverpool would be the most depressing draw. Playing them twice before the final would be grim.

Aye I’ve seen it. Tried to find it recently but had no luck.

True, fair play to him.

They’ll be little divvies who wouldn’t say boo to a goose in real life, no doubt.

Yet one of their fans still called Sissoko the n word today, and his defence was that he used to play for us. I hate wokeness but feel that it’s needed on Wearside EDIT: context
